Stunning Photos of Abandoned Spaces in Japan

Share:

French photographer Romain Veillon is fascinated by disrepair and decomposition – it’s the primary preoccupation of his book, Ask the Dust – and his new photo series “Sonatine” falls within that tradition. It’s the result of a 2016 trip to Japan, where Veillon sought out abandoned buildings, finding a rare and haunting beauty in these forgotten hotels, theme parks, and arcades. These are some of our favorites from this remarkable series; check out more on his website, or follow him on Instagram.
